Last Friday I was engaged in an activity that really is just a fun pursuit for me. Can you believe that sometimes missionaries play? Maybe not all of us do, but I do. While I was playing I started thinking that maybe my 3 hours a week was a waste of time. I really started to dwell on it and prayed that God would give me some clear direction.

After I was done that day, a young lady approached me. She is a friend of my coach who had told her I was a Pastor of a deaf church. She started telling me a story of a 14 year old deaf girl. This is not someone she personally knows, but she has contact with a friend of the deaf girl. This 14 year old girl has been struggling with some serious issues and is reaching out for help, but no one around her can communicate with her. I gave this lady all of our contact information and will try to get with this young girl as soon as possible.

What will come of this? I don’t know, but God used this incident to confirm to me that in whatever activity I am engaged in there are opportunities to touch others for Christ.
